Make a new friend every month ­ "As you get older, it gets harder to make time for new friends," observes Ewen. "But creating and sustaining new connections is an essential part of our personal and professional development." Commit to chatting with a co-worker that isn't in your department or exchanging a few words with your local barista while fetching your morning coffee. Update your jewelry collection - Jewelry can become routine as time goes on: many cling to a few pieces without challenging themselves to try something new or unexpected. Inject some excitement into your everyday look by indulging in a luxurious necklace or intricate bracelet. "A decadent and smartly priced piece like Pandora's Midnight Star blue crystal on a long sterling silver necklace will add a touch of drama to your go-to out ts," says Ewen. Visit www.pandora.net for more styling suggestions. Break out of your comfort zone - Make this year extraordinary by extending your limits. Go on a rafting adventure, try your hand at canyon jumping or ride a camel caravan across the Sahara. Not into travelling? Try out new activities you can do in your own city. "Last year I tried my hand at rally car racing and became totally hooked," admits Ewen. "You never know what will inspire you!" Love your body - Plenty of resolution experts will tell you to nally go to the gym after work or cut out sugar. While it's productive to commit to your health, it's equally important to acknowledge your many positive traits. Take a notepad and jot down everything you like about yourself, inside and out, and place it somewhere you'll run into often ­ your nightstand, car dashboard or as a note in your smartphone. "Your self-esteem deserves a workout, too!" adds Ewen.
